Perfect Mysterious Husband (Maddox and Kimberly)

She wanted to talk to Quill about Vera?

Maddox furrowed his brows. He even tightened his grip on Minerva's hand. He said, "Didn't I tell you not to meddle with other people's relationships? What? Are you trying to be a matchmaker?" For some reason, he suddenly thought of his assistant, Sam.

Sam seemed to have been helping him deal with the company's affairs these days. He had no idea whether he was seizing the opportunity or not.

"No, I just want to talk to him about her. I'm not trying to be a matchmaker."

"Then, you don't have to worry about it." He puckered his lips. After a brief pause, he said, "Remember what I told you just now? If your brother has feelings for her, he would act on his own." She protested, "But..."

"You're his sister, so he will listen to you. If you say something to change his mind, are you going to be responsible for the consequences?"

"So, are you still planning on talking about it to your brother?"

She suddenly narrowed her eyes and stared at him. She asked seriously, "Do you mean what you've said?"

"What?"

"Does Sam like Vera? Is this why you don't want me to set Vera and Quill up?"

He raised his brows at her words. He had asked her to stop because she was pregnant. He did not want her to worry about other people's relationships. After all, everyone had their own fate. Moreover, everything had its cause and effect. It was not a good thing for her to intervene in this matter.

He wasn't planning on helping Sam. He had already tried his best to set them up while they were abroad. However, it seemed that Vera did not have her eyes set on him.

Hence, naturally, there was nothing he could do to force him nor was he planning on forcing him.

If Maddox really had to demand for one thing or one person, that person had to be Minerva.

At the thought of this, he reached out and lightly tapped her forehead.

"What are you thinking about? What does this have to do with others?"

"It doesn't matter. Then why don't you let me intervene?"
